1.
A wasted generation, force fed and braindead We don't need a pill to make things right. We need to use our heads Take a look at yourself, can't you see? You're losing yourself slowly It's time to face up to the debts that we've made before it becomes too late It's forced inside your mind, dragging you down farther behind The pill in your palm is the needle in your neck (They've got you) Down in a hole to keep you in check Another vice, another vex This pill won't work, on to the next Another hole inside your brain It makes you obsessed, it makes you insane but the cure... The cure is in yourself

Hands Tied 01:13
"The things I see, they scare me, yet I must face reality..." Everyone seems to be stuck on a dream Look past your nose, see what I mean Open your eyes and make a move in this world We have something to lose Crooks, leeches and addicts all over the fucking place Don't talk the talk, walk the walk or else you're wasting space We say we're always waiting until the right time... And now is the time. Instead of moving forward we fall farther behind Are your hands tied?

Don't see how you live with yourself Is it just your way to rebel? The hatred of a race is fucking obscene Now it's time to wipe the scum clean Open your eyes Time to wipe the scum clean You don't know why you hate "their kind" Flip the switch in the back of your mind Don't turn away. What's making you so blind? I can't sit and watch Not this time Reciprocate the pain Expose the lies Do what it takes to open your eyes
4.
Seeker 00:54
The seeker of truth will follow no path If you don't start somewhere, you end up dead last You can't start a fire without a spark Knowledge to gain is out there to find Tread your own path or get left behind The power to change is inside our minds To find the truth you must guide yourself Truth is near To find the truth you must guide yourself Truth is here, seeker

Our points of view seem to be skewed They may be different but that's what you choose Pushed in the dark to make you seem bright But we're coming through to the light and I... Never thought to put myself on a pedestal above you So what the fuck did I do? I never meant to disrespect you for your views That's what sets me apart from you
6.
This is our city, these are our slums Look in my eyes, see where I'm from Creeps on the street are missing some teeth They're confined to a corner with no shoes on their feet This is our city, these are our slums Look in my eyes, see where I'm from We stick together, we're coming on strong This fucking city is where we belong So much history, so much soul Land of Misery, this is home This is our city, these are our slums Look in my eyes, see where I'm from When you're crawling from the bottom, you've got so much to grow This is our city and we're on the rise We'll stick together through the hard times
